Just a quick note, folks. I’m finally back to being able to type a bit quicker now. Had a little more trouble than I figured before but now I’m back at it, and with a new job to boot. Got some good scraps to translate into text now and hopefully will be posting them soon.

Like this:

Every vice you didn’t quit
advice you didn’t give
all the work you didn’t do
just catching up with you

Resolutions come and gone
balls dropped
now it’s time to move along

Back to the rise and grind
the same ol’ song
that gets you every time

Happy first Monday of the year, folks. I know, I know. This feels strikingly similar to last year, doesn’t it? Well, to get through that monotony I’ve got a little something here to hopefully brighten up the start of your week.

Tomorrow brings a new year and a new poem but, for tonight, a little somethin’ positive to help lift the mood. Have fun, be safe, and drink as much as a person can possibly consume! Thanks, to everyone, for an amazing year.

It’s a rut.
The tire dug a hole and
then got stuck.
You can rock it,
forward and reverse,
but grooves manufactured only
make the damned thing
all the worse.

Monday again, folks. Well, I sure as heck can’t keep it another work week from coming, but hopefully I came make it a little better. The poem above is from a few scrap ideas that I’ve enjoyed, and I thought you might like them to. Simple to understand and gets to the point of it, I’d like to think.

If that guy above just isn’t doing the job for ya, maybe checking out my Pintrest will brighten your Monday right on up. You can find it here, and be sure to let me know if you enjoy!

Where have the hours gone and
when did they go?
I was sitting in good company
sipping on better and
next thing I know,
that damned alarm clock
sets to leering,
jeering at the circles
set under to hold
open my eyes and tsking
with tics that I’ve got
to do something to somehow
make a life
whether I like it
or not.

Just a little reblog as I finally get back to my normal grind! In addition, here’s a little something to help your Monday go by:

I ask you
Do not devalue the
gravity of the day,
the importance of the this revelry
to fear, fright.

This is the one night where we,
mere mortals,
breath in myth and out
moonlight.

We exude shadows and
from our hearts
shades seep, for one eve,
out of our primal psyche and, again,
into our now hollow
streets.

Happy Halloween, folks! I hope you’re planning to enjoy the night because, let’s face it, at our age we don’t get too many frights which are actually this harmless nor fun. Have a few extra shots on me and here’s to hoping that your night brings a whole lot of fun, a little hells, and some much needed chills to ground ya on down!

Don’t
make mountains out of molehills
bite the hand or
soil where you sleep
burning bridges feels great
but water under is twice as deep
and will float you when you fall
from those high horses who will never
behave for very
long

I’m late for work
on All-Hallow’s week
when did holidays
become so bleak?

Won’t get candy
I gotta get gas
wear a costume?
I’m in last week’s
pants!

Want to Time Warp
or Monster Mash
but what’s more frightening:
Grooving out to Thriller
or the thought of
no cash?

No, instead of haunting
I’ll just ghost away
another zombie shambles
to the promise ofprey pay.

Alright, alright. I know, it’s Monday and that was an extremely corny poem but give an old girl her woes, won’t you? Just thought I’d like to give my protest for growing up, despite the fact I’m as bogged down and out of the fun as they come. Still, I can always raise a hoot in my writing, can’t I?

Anywho, here’s to hoping your day flies by and that you’ve got something cold and on the rocks waiting for you when you get home tonight.

A Lil’ About The Blogger

In this life, you need two things: A strong sense of humor and a crap ton of persistence

The most important thing to know about me is that I'm an optimist and an escapist. These two things, coupled with the fact that I like to write, often form some funny little quips I like to post now and then; however, when not being pointlessly snarky and sarcastic in prose, I'm an Organizational Communications major who fancies herself a part time poet, and full time writer.
